This book discusses all aspects infectious CNS pathology, including different bacterial, viral, fungal, mycoplasma and protozoan pathogens, accompanied by illustrations that show macro- and histopathological changes. It also presents microbiological, epidemiological and clinical data, with a particular focus on meningitis and encephalitis of different bacterial and viral aetiologies, influenza, COVID-19  and other viral and bacterial generalized infections. Further, the book explores the importance of mixed infections, including those in the late stages of HIV infection, as well as pathological changes in different age groups including newborns. A special chapter is devoted to the probable role of biological pathogens in noninfectious brain pathology.

This book discusses all possible aspects of infectious perinatal pathology caused by different bacterial, viral, fungal, mycoplasma and protozoan pathogens. Brief and concise microbiological, epidemiological and clinical data, and all macro- and histopathological changes are illustrated. Issues related to perinatal pathology are compared with those in children and adults.

Special attention is paid to viral, mycoplasma and chlamydia infections. Chlamydia and Mycoplasma lesions are practically unknown to pathologists dealing with human specimens. Several typical and rare examples from the authors’ practice are presented as well. The book is important for pathologists and clinicians (obstetricians, neonatologists, paediatricians).
